The CGW 48025 is a 5-inch diameter fiber disc designed for heavy-duty grinding and finishing on steel. Its 7/8-inch arbor fits compatible rapid-change or back-up pad assemblies that accept standard 5/8-11 threaded spindles, enabling efficient setup for disc sanders and grinders. The disc uses a premium aluminum oxide grain that is sharp and heat-treated to provide durable stock removal with a cooler cut. The grain is electrostatically coated onto a heavy-duty vulcanized fiber backing, which contributes to stable disc life and reduced shedding during use.
This combination supports consistent performance across metalworking tasks that require both material removal and a smoother finish. The 60-grit specification targets mid-range material removal with some finishing capability, making it suitable for preparing welds, deburring, and surface finishing on moderately rough surfaces. Operators should consider appropriate safety practices and compatible tooling speeds, as the disc is rated for high RPM operations typical of industrial grinding tasks.
Packaging is per disc, with a 25-disc box quantity commonly used for maintenance and production environments. When selecting this disc, verify that the backing and arbor size match your grinding tool’s pad or flange system and ensure the RPM rating aligns with the grinder’s maximum operating speed to maintain performance and safety.
